Teton Village is 12 miles northwest of Jackson on WY 390 at the base of 10,536 foot Rendezvous Peak. For skiers, it's the largest vertical rise in America - 4,139 feet. The village is identified by its 100-foot tall clock tower at the Valley Station of the two and one-half mile, 63-passenger aerial tram. It is one of America's most scenic and popular four-season recreation areas.

A quick lesson in Wyoming's art history reveals that Conrad Schwering, Thomas Moran and Archie Teater, among others, all lived and painted here. Teater came to Jackson Hole in a covered wagon in 1928 and was one of the few Western artists to enjoy fame during his lifetime. Since then, his studio/shop has moved around Jackson's Town Square several times. It's now JC Jewelers, where you can stop by for a look and imagine Teater sitting inside, painting away. read more
